Application

d-Desthiobiotin has been used as a component of elution buffers:
  • to elute the precipitated proteins from the resin during coimmunoprecipitation
  • to elute human Cdc45–MCM–GINS (CMG) helicase during chromatographic protein purification
  • to elute the heterodimeric kinesin family member 3A/B (KIF3A/B) and kinesin associated protein 3 (KAP3)-binding APC armadillo (APCARM) domain during chromatographic purification

d-Desthiobiotin is used in affinity chromatography and protein chromatography. d-Desthiobiotin can be used for protein labeling, detection and isolation.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Desthiobiotin is a non-sulfur containing biotin derivative that binds less strongly to biotin-binding proteins and is easily dislocated by biotin.

Fluorescence labeling of a cytokine at a specific site is required for observing cytokine-receptor interactions in living cells at the single-molecule level. Here, we demonstrated the C-terminus-specific fluorescence labeling of histidine-tagged thrombopoietin (TPO), a ligand for Mpl, with desthiobiotin-tagged fluorescent
